seven souls (the black phone characters x reader)

chapter forty-one

After a couple of days Robin was brought back to the room breathing again but was still asleep. I was sitting next to his side while Vance was getting himself into trouble with the nurse's already after he cursed at one this morning for trying to change his Iv. Vance suddenly burst in through the door holding two trays giving me an evil smirk.

"Do I even want to know what you did?" I asked getting up, take one of the trays out of his hand and set it on my bed.

"Just grabbing our food what the fuck did you think?"

"Vance you gave me a look that said I did something stupid and I'm proud of it also I can see you trying to take something from the cafeteria which I assume you did anyways" I said taking a look at the food everything seemed normal until I notice there was something in the little styrofoam cup that was filled to the brim with (f/f) ice cream with (any topping of your choice) on top. Vance burst into laughter as my face lit up a bit at the sight. "Don't get me wrong but this is lovely I don't support stealing though"

"I got myself one too. I snuck into the kitchen to get them and almost got caught" he said, picking up his own cup jumping on the bed.

"Do you normally take things?"

"No, it's the fucking hospital fault they don't give the goods" he said with a mouthful of ice cream. I shook my head while taking another spoonful. "How long do you think will be in here for?"

"Not long I'm hoping my mother brings me home by tomorrow. I'm getting tired just lying in a bed all day and I miss the others but.... I want to stay to make sure Robin is okay" I said, turning my attention to him again.

"Do you have a crush on him or something"

"No no no" I quickly said shaking my head "he's my friend and he's always around to help me with moose who took being the big bully around town while you were announced dead"

"Ah moose me and him used to be close friends before"

"What happened?"

"Stuff" Vance simply said, turning away from me. I knew it was something else, but I wasn't going to be the type of person to push so I just let it slide under the covers. I finished the cup of ice cream, turning my attention to the meal taking in a few bites.

"Vance, I got a question about yesterday"

"What about it" he snapped back at me

"Do you really see me as a friend?" I ask taking a bite of the meat looking over at him. It grew silent for a few minutes before I heard a soft sigh from over his side.

"I guess because you treated me normal like I don't have these fucking anger issue holding me down and we did spend almost a few weeks in the basement, so we were stuck together"

"The basement part we had no choice at, and Vance I understand about your anger issue because I knew you were just anger because you didn't want people to bug you or something like that"

"I know the basement part, but you did feel like a true friend"

"I try" I mumble setting my tray down rolling to my side pulling the blanket over. "I'm tired I'm going to bed and if you fucking keep me up again, I will chase you around the whole hospital"

"Your no fun"

"Vance I'm serious I am tired because you kept me up all night if I stay up longer, I'm going to become a worse version of myself"

"Okay okay" Vance said, getting up, shutting off the light for me laying back in his bed. I closed my eyes, gripping the blanket tight in my grasp for warmth. It didn't matter though as I felt my body floating away.

I opened my eyes, finding myself back in my old town as children were running around the streets giving me one glance before running the other way. I didn't pay much attention to it, letting my feet lead me back to my old house. I noticed the red paint was chipping away and the roof look caved in the door was left open wide with darkness spilling out of the opening by the bit of sunlight shining past the dark clouds. In my mind I knew it was better not to go inside but my feet kept walking leading me right into the house as my mind was screaming begging me to stop but I just couldn't. The inside of the house looked like it had been rotting out turning a grayer/brown inside with black splash on the wall. That's when I heard a giggle behind me.

"You came back just like I knew you would" the rough voice said. Cold fingers curled around my wrist spinning me around coming face to face with the grabber. "You can't get rid of me I'm your worst nightmare"

He was right. I couldn't just bury the memory deep down like I always would before he would come back and back again in a never-ending nightmare. Just because I ended the nightmare in the real world doesn't mean I'm finished yet. I shoved myself away from him running to the stairs as he chased after me. I rushed to a door upstairs slamming it shut behind me, locking it to buy some time while I crawled out through the window onto the roof. I needed to jump if I wished to wake up. The man busted the door open lunging out at me as I gave him a wink opening my arms falling back. 

I shot up out of bed looking around the room looking around the room finding myself back in the hospital just where I needed to be. Vance was still lying-in bed snoring away. I took a deep breath falling back into the covers pulling the blanket over my chest folding in my arms staring at the ceiling.
